The location is absolutely stunning, providing amazing views of the St. Lawrence River, and the proximity to Old Quebec's shops and restaurants is unbeatable. Although my room was a bit small, it was comfortable and clean, and the dining options were really good. The only downside was the valet parking, which can be chaotic and quite expensive.

My stay at Fairmont Le Chateau Frontenac had its highlights, such as the central location and friendly staff, but also some disappointments, like the worn condition of the room and high prices for basic amenities.

My stay at Fairmont Le Chateau Frontenac was quite nice. The location is amazing, overlooking the St. Lawrence River, and the hotel itself is steeped in history. The rooms were spacious and immaculately clean, with comfortable beds that made for restful nights. However, I found the dining options somewhat limited as the bars felt geared toward a younger crowd, and the hotel could benefit from a quieter bar for older guests like myself.

My stay at Fairmont Le Chateau Frontenac was a good blend of luxury and history. The grand hotel, while beautiful, was bustling during my visit, which sometimes made the service feel a bit rushed.
